BAG-LOCK.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent 1\l'o. 277,714, dated May 15, 18 83.

Application filed August 18,1880. (No model.)

To all whom ttmay concern:

Be it known that I, DANIEL S. HAMMOND, of Brooklyn, Kings county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Satchels, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to the manner of arranging metallic pieces with the lock, such as are employed at each end of the lock to make an ornamental finish and toserre for securing the lock more substantially to the frame, also for securing the rings that the handle is connected to the frame by.

The especial feature of the invention is the arrangement of these end pieces in adaptation to the ordinary lock heretofoye generally used, so as to avoid the necessity of altering the construction of the lock to adapt it to the end pieces, thus saving the loss of the tools and apparatus now in general use for making satchel-locks and the cost of new special tools demanded by change in the construction of the lock.

Figure l is a side elevation of the frame, lock, and handle of a satchel, showing my new arrangement of the lock and end pieces. Fi 2 is aside elevation of the lock and one of the end pieces and section of the other, showing them in detached and separated positions; and Fig. 3 is a plan view of the parts as arranged in Fig. 2.

A represents the case of the look now and heretofore generally made and used by manufacturers, all of whom are supplied with the necessary special tools and appliances common with manufacturers for making them, and which are very expensive, although the article to be made is quite simple. Said lock-case has end flanges, B, by which it is commonly secured to the frame 0 by riveting through holes 1).

method consists of making them with a notch,

recess, or rabbet, Gr, arranged to rest and hear on the upper side of flanges B. while the ends H abut against the ends I of the lock, and the bottoms J rest upon the top of frame 0, to which they and the lock are secured by rivers -K. passing through the same holes D in flange B, by which the locks are secured when the end pieces, E, are not employed. The said pieces E are also secured to the frame near the other end by rivets L, and here they are provided with a recess, M, in the under side, by which to secure the rings F for the handle.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-

The combination, with the lock-case A, having end flange, B, projecting from the bottom of the end of the case, of the frame (3, and of the end pieces, E, having recesses G in the under side of the ends vfor said flanges B, and also having sockets M forthe handle-rings, said pieces E being fastened by rivets K, passing through the pieces E and said flanges, substantially as described.
